Do you have plans to make this work on CakePHP 2?

I must be doing something wrong, running the test after some tweaks I get 100% complete. File is nowhere to be found. Running some extra debug

2011-10-02 14:19:18 Debug: initializing cuploadify component...
2011-10-02 14:19:18 Debug: ------data------
2011-10-02 14:19:18 Debug: 
2011-10-02 14:19:18 Debug: $_FILES EMPTY: 1
2011-10-02 14:19:18 Debug: Array
(
    [script] => /mrlink/cuploadify/tests/upload
    [folder] => /mrlink/files
    [buttonText] => ADD FILE

    [multi] => 1
    [uploader] => /mrlink/cuploadify/files/uploadify.swf
    [cancelImg] => /mrlink/cuploadify/img/cancel.png
)

$_FILES is empty?

I have the same error.
In local all works fine but on the distant server, the upload don’t start and gives me an HTTP 302 error.
Can you share your solution, because i use Auth component too, it’s maybe the problem.
Thanks

Even after setting the session id in both the app_controller, my main controller, and using the component I still got a 302 redirect error.
With some debugging the problem was the Auth component, when it ran the check on the session key (Auth.User is the default) it could not find the data even though the session id had been replaced and had become a valid session (checked using Session->valid()).

Solution being, I had to save the username, and password hash in a cookie, or you can save it in the session. To be safe I encrypted them, and set them as named params in the url. When submitted, I would decrypt the data, and use $this->Auth->login() function to login the user in the beforeFilter. Then set the session id for shits and giggles, and that was the best way I could devise to solve my problem.

Very cool plugin! Thank you for sharing! Something I noticed, though, is that if the target file already exists, it is overwritten. I think there should be an option for the “upload” method called “overwrite”. It would be a boolean. If it was set to “true”, the file would be overwritten, which is the current behavior. If it was set to “false”, the filename would have a “2″ put at the end. If that file exists as well, the “2″ would be changed to a “3″. It would keep checking until it finds that the file doesn’t exist.

I am getting the HTTP Error as well. I could tell from the log that the initialize method in the cuploadify component is not getting very far. I assumed that the line: if (isset($_REQUEST["session_id"])) { is evaluating to false. So I tried inserting this line before it: debug($_REQUEST); and what I get is:
Array ( [CAKEPHP] => 2ab485b2fdeeedc64b3fed550e449644 )

So, I’m trying to dig around some more and try some things, but not sure where it’s going wrong. Any help would be much appreciated. I am using Cake v1.3.9

Thanks,
Jason

For those who are having a problem with the files actually uploading to the specified folder defined in upload.ctp, here’s what happened to me. Locally when I had:

“folder” => “/files”

the files would go to the “files” directory off my document root directory not the cake’s webroot directory. However, when I uploaded the code to my server the files were not in the “/files” directory. After pulling out my hair I added a slash at the end of the directory:

“folder” => “/files/”

and the files were now there.

Entharion, can you give more details on how you were able to save the filename to the database? I have it to the point where the files are copying fine and the ALERT displays based on your code.

I’m want to save the filename to the database as well, so I will to call the controller like “TargetTypesController” pass it the filename and save it to the database in the controller or should it be done in the component?

Thank you in the advance.

One thing that wasn’t really clear to me was the the session management part. If you find that you are losing the sessions take note of two things. If you’re not using the cuploadify component ensure you put this code in the app_controller. It didn’t work for me in the beforeFilter of the controller I was working in.

// this is not necessary if you're using the cuploadify component
if (isset($_REQUEST["session_id"])) {
    $session_id = $_REQUEST["session_id"];
    $this-&gt;Session-&gt;id($session_id);
}

I actually did it like this to lock a couple of things down to just the action I needed it for:

if (isset($_REQUEST["session_id"]) &amp;&amp; $this-&gt;action == "add" &amp;&amp; $this-&gt;params['controller'] == 'images') {
   $session_id = $_REQUEST["session_id"];
   $this-&gt;Session-&gt;id($session_id);
}

Also, as pointed out in the comments earlier but to sum some things up ensure you change this parameter. I had already wrestled with this on a previous project and it’s a toughy if you don’t know what’s happening

Configure::write('Session.checkAgent', false);
